A review by bonitazivot
The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway
1.0
I don't mean to be negative Nancy here, but if this was Hemingway's greatest work then I wonder how much I'll dislike his other stories.
It felt like the longest 99 pages I ever read. Each page filled with lack of adventure and strange thoughts. I read some reviews saying you have to be old and experienced enough to understand this book, and I'm afraid I am not yet there.
Maybe I'll try again when I'm a bit older (I am 26 now), but for now I'll have to rate it a 2/10.
